Venus Wears Sweater, 2025

Description: Venus Wears Sweater is characteristic of Sarin's 'neural bricolage' approach: training Generative Adversarial Networks on small, hand-crafted datasets derived from her own sketches, ink drawings, watercolors, and photographs. The resulting images lie across the digital and the analog, inheriting traces of pastels, newspapers, and photographs alongside the specific distortions of the AI model. Sarin's still lifes of figures, flowers, vases, and everyday objects carry the improvised, bold, and deeply personal character of her analog practice, transformed through the generative process into images that are always somewhere between memory and invention.
